A riff on the traditional hexagon quilt, Jennifer Sampou's Polygon Play is an appliqué quilt that was made without using her hexie templates as she had forgotten them when she traveled to the mountains to make it. It is what she calls a "wonky polygon" quilt, creating fun variations of negative space throughout the piece.
Learn from Jennifer in Show 2706.

TQS continues its feature of quilts from the exhibit Log Cabin Today! Presented by Brigitte Morgenroth, a series of log cabin quilts created by Brigitte Morgenroth that were featured at the Houston International Quilt Festival in 2015. The exhibit is described as:
"Twenty-five years ago, Brigitte Morgenroth discovered quilting when she lived in Bophuthatswana (a former homeland in South Africa) and Libya. She creates modern and interesting Log Cabin quilts, with her choice of expressive colors and material, combined in different variations and arrangements: Log Cabin with a twist, triangular, undulating, or pineapple. Silk and polyester satin are her favorite materials, sometimes combined with patterned cotton. Mainly, she sews large quilts and sometimes smaller, more sophisticated ones. All of her quilts are hand-quilted. She gives this old pattern a modern, interesting character."
Please enjoy Brigitte's twelfth quilt from the exhibition.
